Place
F: 32284B(9)W(56.0)

Main Danger
4 Flying Agenda
F: 0B(3)W(58.5)

Next Best
1 Malibu
F: 62263B(12)W(58.5)
( J-Jonathan Riddell )

$95 shot at Wanganui last time but defied those odds to be less than 5 lengths away, a terrific run considering it was its first in a year. Inside draw

F: 5X459B(1)W(57.5)

Main Danger
3 John Doe
F: X3617B(5)W(58.0)
( J-Chris Dell )
( T-Mark Oulaghan )
Won its maiden two back after close up finishes previously, so surprised to see it a bit off them last start. Going to give it a chance to bounce back
Next Best
7 Flutterbelle
F: 00651B(8)W(56.0)

( J-Jim Chung )
( T-Robbie Patterson )
Improved and took its record to 4 wins from just 12 starts when going back to back at New Plymouth 2 weeks ago. Not a particularly strong field and the chances of a hattrick are on
